Eyelash length is an inherited trait. In the human population, there is an eyelash length gene. There are two possible variants of this gene – an allele for long eyelashes (> 1cm) and an allele for short eyelashes (1 cm or less). How many eyelash length alleles does an individual have in one of her/his somatic cells?
